Semi‐supervised classification of fundus images combined with CNN and GCN
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most serious complications of diabetes, which is a kind of fundus lesion with specific changes. Early diagnosis of DR can effectively reduce the visual damage caused by DR. Due to the variety and different morphology of DR lesions, automatic classification of fundus images in mass screening can ...

Opto-UNet: Optimized UNet for Segmentation of Varicose Veins in Optical Coherence Tomography [PDF]
Human veins are important for carrying the blood from the body-parts to the heart. The improper functioning of the human veins may arise from several venous diseases. Varicose vein is one such disease wherein back flow of blood can occur, often resulting in increased venous pressure or restricted blood flow due to changes in the structure of vein.

Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Depth-resolved vascular profile features for artery-vein classification in OCT and OCT angiography of human retina [PDF]
This study is to characterize reflectance profiles of retinal blood vessels in optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to validate these vascular features to guide artery-vein classification in OCT angiography (OCTA) of human retina. Depth-resolved OCT reveals unique features of retinal arteries and veins.
